Mr.. Will 5. Thomas, the president of the
city council. is democrat He was born
so, and he has never fallen from grace
or whatever it may be called. We are al
ways and forever opposed to him in politics
and as politician; but when he takes oc-
casion to exercise his business keenness and
practical sense in scrutinizlng plans brought
TO the attention of our people, and exercises
a proper degree OF vigilance and promptness
in trying to protect the city from the friends
of enterprises, the practicabillty of which has
not been made reasonably apparent. he de-
serves commendation and shall have it,
from the REPUBLIC. He has it, therefore,
here and now.

hope of securing home supply of natural

will not give up the effort until his drill
drops down Tor up into China. Several
other distinguished gentlemen manifest a

outsiders find the gas first, and in ample
quantities, and bring it TO the city limits,
they will find that local manufacturers will
take the entire supply at once and pay a
reasonable price for it.

is to be turned into parkette.
That was the way when Canton built. 1t

ment. 1t has traspired since that the at
tachment' was about all there was in the
project Springfield shows wisdom at least
in converting the old site into park, even

times more than any price they could get
for it. - Breathing places in cities are next

As soon as Mrs. Lincoln discovered this her
rage was beyond all bounds. "What does
the woman mean," she exclaimed, ''by rid
ing by the side of the president and ahead Of
mes Does she suppose that he wants her by
the side of hims' She was in frenzy of
excitement, and language and action both
became more eItravagant every moment.
Mrs. Grant again endeavored to pacify her,
but then Mrs. Lincoln got angry with Mrs.
Grant, and all that Porter and could do
was to see that nothing worse than words
occurred. We feared she might Jump out
Of the vehicle and shout to the cavalcade
Once she said to Mrs. Grant in her transports:

WIS very calm and dignified, and merely re-
piled that she was quite satisfied with her
present position; it was far greater than she
had ever expected to attain Then Mrs.
Lincoln exclaimed: "Ohl you had better
take it if you can get it. IT'S very nice"
Then she returned to Mrs. Ord, but Mrs
Grant defended her friend at the risk of
arOusing greater vehemence.
Once when there was a halt Mai. Seward,
a nephew of the secretary of state and an
officer of Gen. Ord's staff, rode up, and try
ing TO say something jocular, remarked:
The presidents horse is very gallant, Mrs.
Lincoln. he insists on riding by the side OF
Mrs Ord This Of course added fuel to tho
fame. What do you mean by that, sir''
she cried. Seward discovered that he had
made huge mistake, and his horse at once
developed a popularity that compelled him to
ride behind TO get out of the way OF the
storm.
Finally the party arrived at its deSt ma
ton and Mrs. Ord came up TO the ambu

her, called her vile names in the presence of

by following up the president The poor
woman burst into tears and inquired what

A BIG DEAL PROJECTED.
The Terminal Syndicate Extending
lis Power IL, the South.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, April 9.-One of
the biggest railroad deals ever entered into
i'll the Southeast is on the tapiS. The rumor,
apparently well founded. is afloat that the
Richmond Terminal syndicate is negotiating
for the purchase of the Georgia Central, of
Georgia, and the Florida roads. No men,
beF6fthe Richmond & West Point Terminal
syndicate is accessible here, but for the
past few days there has been significant
gathering of leading railroad men interested
in the sale at Savannah. Among them
were John c. Calhoun. of New York,
who took leading part in the Alexander
scoop of the Georgia Central last January;
also his brother. Patrick Calhoun of
Atlanta; c. II. Phiniz and Uriah B. Harold,
directors of the Central, and Isaac L.
Rice, of New York. large holder of Cen
trail stock, and said also to be interested in
the Richmond terminal. The price paid
for the Florida road is said to be $40, 900
per mile. There are $50 miles of the sys-
TEN. These rumors are further substanti-
ated by the fact that Austin Corbn. who is
said to be interested in the Richmond
terminal syndicate, was recently here and
went over the entire line of the system in
company with Receiver Duvall. Mr..
DLvalI was seen Yesterday and asked about
the reported sale. He said he knew
nothing of the sale, but frankly
admitted that such a deal could happen
without MS knowledge, though not likely
to. He said there had been efforts hereto
fore to purchase hi5'roa by other systems,
but they would not pay enough. He did
not think the road could be purchased for
$4,000 per mile. He said, however. that
the Florida system would be organized be-
fore next season, but most likely by the
roads own bondhoders. The Richmond &
West Point terminal now owns the East
Tennessee. Virginia & Georgia, and if it has
catured the Florida system will have a di-
rect line into Florida with the exception of
a seventy-tive mile gap between Jesup. Ga,
and the nearest connection with the Florida
system: Rumors of this deal have created
the greatest interest among railroad men of
the southeast.
